Hi Guys!

I recently purchased this airplane from Leon Cleaver this year and have been slowly moving the smaller parts back to canada.

A group of us are going back on Sept. 15 to pickup more parts (control surfaces, spare l/g, etc.) back, and are aiming to bring the fuselage back in mid-October.

Over the past while we have successfully gathered a majority of the information required to restore it. One thing we have not been able to do is source out the history of the airframe.

The only information that we have currently is on this site: http://www.aerialvisuals.ca/AirframeDossier.php?Serial=73966 and would love to know where to start looking.

Ask Bob Parmerter as I am certain he will have the whole history on your Beech and pretty much every Beech 18. Email me and I'll send you his contact information.
